Free stroller handle mitt
by Emily Nicholson 01 Dec '20

01 Dec '20

When we gave away our BOB jogging stroller with all accessories a couple of months ago, I forgot to include this handle bar mitt because it was packed away with winter things. It snaps onto the handle bar and should fit on most strollers. Really essential to cold-weather walking; my hands are always cold even with gloves on, so the mitt made them feel like they were also in my pockets. Free to whoever wants it. Sent from my iPhone

Support Fulton's Book Fair!
by Rebecca Maclean 01 Dec '20

01 Dec '20

Do you remember book fairs when you were a child? The anticipation brought on by the flyer in your bookbag. Looking at all the options and circling a few (or many) things you wanted. Negotiating with your grownups over which ones to buy. Holding tightly onto the money sent into school and choosing the Perfect Book. As many of you know, Pittsburgh Public Schools students have not been attending school in person since March. While our teachers have done their best through this new medium to support their students, there is nothing like having a book in hand for young readers. At Pittsburgh Fulton, we are lucky to have a wonderful, engaging librarian interested in creative ways to reach students. The school has set up a book fair this month for students to have the chance to choose a book or two, and send it directly to their homes. While many families are able to participate in the book fair without struggle, we know that other families are not able to do so, especially during a pandemic. Fulton has set a goal to make sure every child can receive a book from the book fair this year to bring some joy and semblance of normalcy to their days. To do so, Pittsburgh Fulton PTA has set up a fund to collect donations to provide a book for every student. Please consider supporting Fulton’s Book Fair Donation Fund today – even a small amount would make a big difference! Donating is easy through our PayPal link: https://tinyurl.com/SupportFulton. Of course, you're also welcome to shop our book fair for your own Perfect Book: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/pittsburghfulton Our PTA is a 501(c)3 organization and your donations may be tax deductible. Please also keep us in mind for any year-end giving you may be planning. Thanks in advance for your support of our fantastic students!
